The WebSphere® 6.1 Feature pack for Web services offers a new and improved implementation of Java Web services and improved usability. Some of the changes simplify existing solutions; others enable new solutions requiring more secure and reliable services, asynchronous interaction patterns, and more complex data models. The Feature pack for Web services offers a preliminary implementation of the WS-I Reliable and Secure WS-I profile, which is expected to proceed to ratification through 2008. This IBM® Redbooks® publication includes an extensive interoperability example using Reliable and Secure Web services with the Windows Communications Foundation. There are also lots of examples showing you how to use the feature pack, use the new Web services Policy sets, and code Java Web services using the JAX-WS specification. For architects and designers, there are chapters on business scenarios that will benefit from the feature pack, and examples of patterns that are readily implemented using the feature pack.

This IBM Redbooks publication explains the concepts and practice of developing service-oriented architecture (SOA)-based solutions using the IBM Rational Software Delivery Platform (SDP). It uses the latest version of IBM Rational Unified Process (RUP) that includes service-oriented modeling and architecture (SOMA) content from IBM Global Business Services. This book aims to help practitioners that are working on SOA-based projects. Practitioners can learn the core concepts behind SOA as well as how to use the tooling to automate the tasks involved in developing SOA-based solutions. The main thread of this book takes business requirements, business architecture, and existing assets as input, and derives the elements of a service-oriented architecture that are needed to realize the business requirements. The book covers architecture in detail, and shows how the architecture is realized through service identification, specification, realization, implementation, and testing. The book is organized around a practical example case study and provides tool and process guidance as well as additional references around key topics.

This IBM Redbooks publication covers composite applications for desktop solutions that require multiple types of applications to run in a cooperative environment by providing intercommunication between components. Service-oriented architecture (SOA) composite applications deliver high levels of business services and this book covers the architecture, available tools, component considerations, as well as assembling, deploying and wiring components in WebSphere Portal and Rich Client Platforms, such as Lotus Expeditor and Lotus Notes 8. Lotus Expeditor is a client platform for end-to-end smart client application solutions. Expeditor provides services to install and manage these applications and allows users to easily launch and switch among these applications. Expeditor leverages Eclipse technology to provide a client solution that runs on multiple operating systems. The benefits of composite applications include reducing the total cost of ownership for client solutions through reusability of existing components and the sharing of these components across applications, migrating existing applications to run on the client platform, controlling access to applications based on roles assigned to users and improving the user experience by allowing composite application components to easily communicate between them. This publication is targeted at architects, developers and administrators who need to understand the implemented architecture to develop, assemble and deploy composite applications in Lotus Expeditor V6.1.

This IBM Redbook is intended to help you design your processes and solutions using Rational products to manage compliance. It shows how Rational solutions can be applied by an organization to realize a controlled, auditable software development environment to help alleviate specific challenges imposed by standards, policies, and regulations. This book provides a usage model and product configuration guidance to help a tools administrator implement and configure some or all of the Rational tools to address compliance challenges. This book is intended help you and your partners understand the design and deployment of IBM Rational's Business Driven Development for Compliance solution. This book focuses on problems addresses by Rational products. The emphasis is on auditable change processes, in particular using ClearQuest and ClearCase. We provide additional coverage of requirements for compliance using RequisitePro, and compliance attestation using ClearQuest Test Manager, IT governance using Rational Portfolio Manager, Rational Method Composer, and the Rational Unified Process (RUP). This book presents a solution for compliance management that demonstrates support of all three dimensions of business driven development of software for compliance, say what you do, do what you say, and be able to prove it.

This IBM Redbook provides an introduction to the IBM SOA Foundation, and includes a detailed implementation example for the Service Creation scenario. Part 1. "Getting started with IBM SOA Foundation," includes an introduction to SOA from a business and architecture perspective. We describe the key elements of the IBM SOA Foundation, including the SOA life cycle, logical architecture, and SOA scenarios. Next we describe the Service Creation scenario in more detail since this is the focus of redbook example. We describe best practices and guidelines for SOA. In addition, we include a process for applying the SOA scenarios and patterns. Part 2 "Service Creation scenario example," provides an end-to-end working example representative of the Service Creation scenario. We start by modeling the business requirements of a fictitious car rental company that has an existing J2EE based application. We demonstrate how to identify services using SOMA, and use a process for applying the SOA scenarios and reusable patterns to accelerate the creation of a solution architecture. The remaining chapters provide the implementation details to assemble using Rational Application Developer V6.0.1, deploy using WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment V6.0.2, and manage the solution using Tivoli Composite Application Manager for SOA V6.0.

This IBM Redbook is based on the experiences of a team in the IBM Hursley laboratory. They built an auto-claim insurance solution to put the WebSphere software platform through its paces. The team worked with WebSphere developers to use the experience of building the solution to improve the design of WebSphere version 6 platform products. They thought it would be valuable to share their experiences with a wider audience. The result is a tour de force, showing how the team went about using IBM's software development platform to understand business requirements and then architect, design and build the solution. Their experiences will help you plan, design and build a business driven development solution using products from IBM's WebSphere Business Integration portfolio. This redbook is written from the perspective of three types of developer: the business analyst, the software architect, and the IT specialist. Individual chapters in the book show how each member of the team developed their part of the solution, and how the team integrated the solution together.
